This book, subtitled  "Embedded Programming for the Real World" shows how to program embedded systems with C. Steve Oualline shows how embedded programs interact with bare hardware directly, goes behind the scenes with the compiler and linker, and explainsC features that are important for programming regular computers.

<ASIN:1718501625>

The first part of the book teaches C basics with the aid of a low-cost, widely available bare metal system (the Nucleo Arm evaluation system). Later chapters consider the requirements of working with limited memory, before moving on to how to use more complex, memory hungry C features like dynamic memory, file I/O, and floating-point numbers.
